After Xu Weilai exited from the elevator, made her way straight for the conference room.
By the time she arrived, the conference room was already in a state of mess. Members of the upper management were all crowding around a group of people who were embroiled in a fight and everyone stared with their mouths agape.
Xu Weilai quickly pushed her way through the crowd and soon spotted her younger brother, Xu Zhanwang, who seemed extremely angry. His eyes were fixed on the Gu Yu, who was completely expressionless, and he had balled up his fists so tightly that she could almost hear the sound of his knuckles cracking.
Gu Xue was standing by his side and tugging his arm to stop him from charging at Gu Yu.
Meanwhile, Assistant Lin was standing between them and was anxiously trying to persuade Xu Zhanwang and mediate the situation.
However, Assistant Lin’s words fell on deaf ears for Xu Zhanwang was already bent on beating Gu Yu up. He shook off Gu Xue’s hand roughly and swiftly rushed forward to knock Assistant Lin out of the way before he yanked Gu Yu’s lapels with one hand and smashed his knuckles into Gu Yu’s face quickly and ruthlessly.
Xu Zhanwang’s move was too quick and sudden and neither Assistant Lin nor Gu Xue could stop him in time. Xu Weilai could barely manage to utter a syllable to stop her brother before he had already thrown out a punch at Gu Yu.
Just when everyone thought that Gu Yu would take the blow, a slender figure standing on his right instantly jumped out and shielded Gu Yu behind her.
Xu Zhanwang’s fists plummeted into her face just like that.
As he was consumed with rage, he showed no mercy with his punch and had summoned all the strength that he could. The slender instantly staggered backwards after taking the blow. Feeling as if her world was spinning, she leaned onto Gu Yu for support.
Everyone couldn’t help but draw in a breath of shock.
Although they were not the ones on the receiving end of the punch, everyone could hear how swiftly the punch was thrown out and it was obvious that Xu Zhanwang was out to kill.
Xu Zhanwang never expected someone to jump out so abruptly to take the blow for Gu Yu and was momentarily stunned when he realised that he had struck the wrong person. Seizing the opportunity, both Xu Weilai and Gu Xue snapped out of their daze and rushed forward to grab hold of him to pull him away from Gu Yu so that he wouldn’t have the chance to throw out further punches at him.
Xu Zhanwang did not seem to notice Xu Weilai and merely had a look indignance as he struggled with all his might and spat out through his gritted teeth, “Gu Xue, let go of me! Mind your own business!”
Xu Zhanwang shoved Gu Xue away with all his might and she almost lost her footing but thankfully, managed to regain her balance after much difficulty.
Xu Weilai instantly flared up when she saw this and smacked him hard on the head before she yelled, “I suppose I’ll have to mind my own affairs as well then?”
Xu Zhanwang’s eyes were written with shock when he heard his sister’s familiar voice. He immediately turned to look at her and his pupils suddenly constricted as he blurted out, “Sis… Why are you here?”
After saying that, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something for he quickly turned to glare at Gu Xue before he yelled furiously, “It’s must be you again! Didn’t I tell you not to inform my sister? Why do you have to be such a nosy parker?”
Xu Weilai went ballistic once again when she heard his tone of voice.
She had taught him from young to be gentle with girls and if Gu Xue hadn’t called her over, she felt certain that he would have caused some serious trouble.
“Shut up! How dare you be fierce to Xiao Xue! Why are you creating trouble the moment you come back instead of studying in school? You…” Xu Weilai paused. While she was furious, she couldn’t lecture her younger brother here, for there were too many curious onlookers. She knew that she had to put out the fire first.
After taking in a deep breath, she lowered her voice and instructed, “Shut up and stay here. Don’t cause any more trouble!”
